Anything PUBLIC is in danger of being dismantled: Public Libraries, Pub Schools, National Parks. Come Jan, the move to privatize all things benefiting society begins. Eventually SS, Medicare, VA, NOA (tracking weather!) will be privatized. Oligarchs who BOUGHT those in charge want it all.

You cannot have a functioning economy when so few people at the top hold so much of the nation’s wealth. It’s not sustainable.

NEW: CBS’ Norah O’Donnell interviewed Trump last night on “60 Minutes,” only to ask him a series of softball questions with little follow-up. There had been no pushback, no corrections. Unlike CBS, Democracy Docket will never bow down, @marcelias.bsky.social writes.

Tonight marks a milestone for all of us at the PBS News Hour. On this day 50 years ago, we aired our first broadcast. The show had a different name, but the same mission to deliver thoughtful & trustworthy journalism. Half a century later, we're still at it & guided by the same principles & mission.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.
